SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Christian drummer looking to join band or get together with musicians to start band. I'm not looking to become famous or rich. I'm a realist who loves music and would love to play it with other people who love it as well. Some may think it is hypocritical for a Christian to play rock music but m not convinced of that. I don't listen to some music because I think it has a bad influence but often I can relate to lyrics from rock bands as a result of my old lifestyle and it inspires me to give thanks for the life that God has given me today.

Influences
Bohnam, of course. Love Matt Cameron's style (Soundgarden) and Shannon Larkin (Godsmack) is my latest influence. I play aggressive but I'm not a heavy metal drummer.
Love Zep and most clessic rock. Also love Soundgarden and Alice in Chains and most rock in general. Hate singers who just grunt out the lyrics.
EQUIPMENT
I have 3 sets. I have an old set of Peavy's set up in practice room to practice on and a set of Mapex Ravens that I play live on. Also have a set of Imperialstar's that pretty much stay in storage. Use all Sabian cymbals. Have a couple base model Xs's and well as AAX and HH.
